Name of Tour bus that brought me to: GuangZhou, Lipu, Guangdong, Guilin, HeZhou, Yangshuo introducing KING LONG. Last picture of me and the bus (dont we match?) before heading to the airport!
Drink Future Cola and you future will be better ! P.S Beer is so much cheaper than coke and any other carbonated/sweetened drink!
Check out rule number 8.
The sign ACTUALLY SAYS: "Danger! Cameras are forbid to climb up and over"
and another one..
grammatically incorrect due to direct translations?
If you cant read it reads: The Foot of a water switce!
:)
I still cant figure this one out.. a little help guys?
Dont beat what?
No Smoking Please?
They have the weirdest bathrooms (in different designs!) in China. Take note that the wall only reaches up to your knees when you stand up.. I leave the rest up to your imagination!
Two little pigs went out to play until they got squashed by me!
My turn to look like a bloody doll in PINK! This is the costume from the Tung tribe (I am wearing three layers here-my jeans, tshirt, sweatshirt: so you can imagine how hot I was feeling at that point!
I felt like a guy in this situation. I had to pay 10 renmimbi (RM5) for each girl I chose and there were six all clinging to me! I ended up selecting these two lovely ladies..
Me and my husband. This tribe greet and show signs of affection by holding one ear and YES thats MY EAR between his fingers!
That ass is my ass the guy just grabbed me and carried me around on his back I felt like an idiot!
remember I told you guys I got married .. well here are the pictures my husband is the dude on my left! P.s Being thrown up in the air, carried around and touched in all the wrong places (no kinky thoughts please!) ...(for those who do not know me I HATE PEOPLE TOUCHING MY EARS!)
"A little help please, this thing is heavy!" That large pot-like statue is what the Chinese used to serve dishes such as beef, meat etc.. during the war to thousands of soldiers.
Me meditating on a rock.
both analyzing each other. DAMN CUTE!
Mel and her "people" can be found all over China. Very tame but damn cheeky, will snatch any food you are carrying or eating at the time!
Check out this cute signage of one of the more popular cafes in Yangshuo. (OMG: Reading their signboards in China is entertaining!)
Yangshuo, also known as West Street. A street that caters for mostly foreigners from all over the globe (the only street where people speak English!). Trendy cafes, bars and hotels and terrific shopping! Recommended to go in a group with your close buddies!
check out my eyes.. bloodshot red. This session was for us to sample different types of rice wine.. hehe!
Not drunk or tipsy yet but the barrel behind me is used to transport rice wine aka TAPAI and you know what that means!.
another cool sculpture which leads into a garden that promises happiness, lasting relationships....etc..
Cliffs.. mountains.. me!
The Chinese can think of everything,nice elephant sculptures huh?The statues are made of a million tiny glass bottles!
This tree is 4000 years old!!!!
This picture was taken inside a famous cave..name of the cave unfortunately I cant recall but you can find all sorts of things in caves, stones shaped like Cocks, Tits, even Buddha..I KID YOU NOT
what do these look like to you ? refer to the signboard below!
tits.
Most of the caves in China have carvings (very detailed and intricate carvings!) That date back to the late 1800's. Some of them were quite creepy whereas some were darn right hilarious!
The Chinese community believed that if you climb this particular hill with your partner, and each get a padlock with your names engraved and then lock it there along the chain link it would bring a lifetime of happiness together and your partner would not stray! Nowadays couples go there on their first year as husband and wife and return after a couple of years in search of their padlocks! (the prevention of adultery is all a myth though some still strongly believe in this myth!)
I climbed about a million steps to get up this cliff and I was not disappointed it was gorgeous I could see the whole Guilin City. (P.s Theres a story about the padlocks hanging behind me!)
wah HO liang oh... (erhum.. the ah moi and the scenery!)
I felt like I stepped back in time, the people in the smaller villages were still dressed in traditional clothings, military wear (rather scary) and their buildings and structures are ancient (hundreds of years old)
China is beautiful, now i understand why most chinese paintings have mountains in them (the chinese are surrounded by mountains, cliffs and hills even in the City!)
i'm leaving on a jet plane.. the view from the airplane always amazes me..

Gettin' the chink out of me.. :)
Yangshuo... yes thats where I am people- Just had a one hour full body massage for 35 Yuan (RM17.50).. *SIGH* this is the life. Just to let you know I have really interesting stories to tell you guys when I get back home: all about CHINA 1) The scenery is beautiful-beyond words. 2) There have weird customs - I finally found a place where I would not like to greet people! They greet and show affection by touching your EARS! 3) I got married last night and you wont believe how P.s I have some pictures of my wedding! (I kid you not!) 4) The place I am now is called West Street, alot of foreigners, bars, night markets (selling lotsa stuff for dirt cheap). Its a place to chill with friends though NOT in a tour group. From here I will be moving from one town to another, staying at different hotels everynight which is tiring-nothing a little massage cant fix :) "I tell you my chinese very the good quality one ower (yes not over) here". No one speaks English not even my tour guide I have to depend on my cantonese skills (which is surprisingly good enough!) Anyhows in Mandarin the only things i need to say are:
1) Chee so (toilet)
2) Ho kui (Sooo expensive)
3) Pu Yao (don wan)
4) Wo Pu Ming Pai (I dont understand)
5) Lei Sik Kong Kong Tung Wah (in cantonese which basically means "Do you speak cantonese?"
Ending here if I find another internet cafe will let you know whether I have kids by then (KIDDING!)
sei sei ni. Ngo oi FAN KAU...bye bye from chilly China.
